The outer edges need to be held solid, a couple of inches of mortar laid on the ground won't do the job, it will move over time. You can buy special edgeing strips to "nail" into the ground, or use simple angle iron and reinfocing rod as nails. If you want to go the concrete/cement route I'd do a mini foundation to hold the edge, say 30cm x 30cm. Rick |
